EcafTech Introduces a New Audience Measurement Solution for Digital Signage - DSVC



EcafTech a Taiwan company that develops software focused on the audience measurement in Digital Signage (DS), in September 2010 announced its leading audience measurement solution for out-of-home media-Digital signage viewer counter (DSVC).

In the modern age, traditional media can only achieve audience information with its sampled monitoring and sampled survey methods. Instead of relying on sampled responses from viewers, DSVC adopts the new generation biometric technology, the FACE U human face identification algorithms. Working with a single IP CAM, the DSVC quickly and precisely captures the people who walk near and records the people who actually look at your DS. It continually transmits the real-time data to the Content Management System of your DS network. The real-time data can be further synchronized with contents to determine how many people saw each ad being played. These entirely anonymous, meaningful and powerful metrics help to evaluate the media performance accurately and to decide the best location for DS.

DSVC's outstanding features included:

  • superior detection speed (verifying audience's viewing distance 6.5 meters away);

  • detect viewer's faces in every second;

  • telling you how many people walk near;

  • telling you how many among them actually look at;

  • telling you how long they look at your DS;

  • showing audience's engagement level to the content of DS;
